Improper Towing Under W.S. §31-13-101 et seq.

Wyoming towing law requires specific procedures. W.S. §31-13-101 et seq. governs abandoned vehicles. Tow operators must notify law enforcement within 24 hours and registered owner via certified mail. Failure voids the lien and creates liability under W.S. §40-12-101 et seq. (Wyoming Consumer Protection Act). Wyoming's small population means many tow operators are casual about compliance.

Legal basis

W.S. §31-13-101 et seq.; W.S. §40-12-101 et seq. (Consumer Protection Act)

Sample appeal wording

TO: [TOWING COMPANY] RE: Vehicle [PLATE] - Demand for Compliance Under W.S. §31-13-101 et seq., you are required to: [LIST REQUIREMENTS]. Your failure voids your lien and constitutes conversion plus violation of W.S. §40-12-105 (Consumer Protection Act), exposing you to actual damages, attorney fees, and additional remedies under W.S. §40-12-108. I demand: (1) return of vehicle without charge; (2) refund of fees; (3) written response within 10 days. Failure will result in litigation in [COUNTY] Circuit Court. [NAME] [DATE]

Replace [PARKING DATE], [NtK DATE] etc. with your own dates before sending.
